Simply the Best Puppy DVD, April 8, 2014
Reviewer: Skye Anderson, Dog Evals
Classic Puppy DVD for New-Puppy Peeps

DVDs and books differ from each other in quality, style, organization, and content as well as some being better written or photographed than others, more complete, better researched or cover different information, and so on. I searched on Amazon, googled ‘Puppy’ and ‘DVD,’ and picked up a couple at seminars – four, in all that I feel are worthwhile with the best one being Puppy Kindergarten.

You’re never too young to clicker train! Or be clicker-trained!

If you only get one puppy training video, let this be the one! It is an easy yet fun and totally comprehensive course in the how and why of clicker training - and can nearly substitute for a clicker puppy group class!

Kindergarten goes slowly with just the right amount of explanation to help you really understand and follow the four easy steps:

1. Get the behavior (by luring with a reward, shaping it step by step, or waiting and capturing the behavior with a reward)

2. Attach a cue to it (give it a name) then make it harder (up the ante/raise the criteria) while ensuring success

3. Take it on the road! (generalize it)

4. Make it distraction-proof!

Corally Burmaster’s gentle clicker training voice opens by discussing puppy development from about two weeks onward. She shows us the learning window with a litter of Airedales who have numerous objects to crawl over, under, around and through, thus making them comfortable with new things. She traces clicker training from its inception in the 60s with marine mammal training programs and explains the kind of treats to reward the dog with and why. Burmaster really covers everything clicker and then some!

This DVD makes the viewer smile out loud at the puppy antics but still receive a great foundation for clicker training a pup! Just the right speed, combination, and ratio of information to puppy antics.

Puppy Kindergarten won the Dog Writers’ Association of America (DWAA) Maxwell award in 2003 for the best video of the year.

Excellent for Beginners, People and Puppies!, May 30, 2009
Reviewer: Barb Buchmayer
This is a well organized, easy to follow and understand video. Corally does a great job of showing and explaining the basics of clicker training for the beginner. It is easy to see what she is doing with the pups and how she gets the desired results. She makes it look simple and easy!

If you are familiar with clicker training this is probably too basic but, for the uninitiated it shows what can be accomplished and the steps used to get there.

My only concern is that Corally does a lot of talking and encouraging of her pups and i am not sure this is the best precedent to establish for future clicker training.

All in all this video is a good place to start learning the basics of clicker training and seeing what can be accomplished with even young puppies.

Reviewer: Kasey Laplace
This video is a great edition to anyone's library. It is a very well-shot video. Corally makes training your puppy look as easy as it actually is! Every puppy should be so lucky as to have his or her owner buy this video and use the techniques that are demonstrated. This is also a very good demonstration video for trainers to use with their clients. It covers all the basics and then some in a clear, easy to understand format!
